[opensuse] Monitoring WiFi
by Koenraad Lelong 24 Nov '16

24 Nov '16

Hi, It's a bit off-topic, but I don't know where else to ask, so I try here ;-) I would like to monitor some WiFi-networks. With that I mean, check if I can associate with the SSID and get an ip-address. If that works, all is good, and dis-associate. If it fails send an alert (email) and/or log it (e.g. cacti). Try again some time later. etc., ad infinitum ;-) To do this I would need some device like a raspberry pi with a LAN (to send alerts) and a WiFi interface. Is there software that does this ? TIA, Koenraad. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

To be sure: You branched the scanner (and it is seen by lsusb) You went to yast and went to hardware submenu, choose scanner and did configure the scanner? It is seen there. Then you were trying to scan with scanlite and it did not work. Did you try other software for scan than scanlite and which version of scanlite do you have installed (from what vendor / repo?) Did you by any chance have a special repo activated for OCR software from buildservice? This will install some libraries that may not work. If not go following repo for 42.1 (if you do not want to install 42.2 right away) and install the kernel from kernel stable. That should work in every case (as it works here with the very same setup). --- Die Bundesliga hat begonnen!

[opensuse] kwin_x11 causing full cpu load
by cagsm 23 Nov '16

23 Nov '16

Some hours ago there were some leap 42.2 updates for some kde or graphics stuff. I think I remote ssh'd into the machine and zypper ref zypper up and eventually saw some cpu load via top After the zypper up zypper ps showed lot of graphics stuff from the real running machine, so I systemctl restart displaymanager.service or its real name. After that top showed those cpu lod of kwin_x11 106% cpu load it printed out On the whole internet I have seen endless discussions at fedora and also other places but even dating back as far as 2009 or earlier about kwin_x11 and cpu trouble What gives? :( Thank you -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] [opensuse-kde] kdm added to minimal X 42.2 installs 67 packages, requires gstreamer&&&

That seems like an awful lot of stuff just to get a greeter that's fully configurable. Are these really _required_ of a login-manager/greeter?: sound (gstreamer, gstreamer-plugins-base, libpuls*) spell checker (hunspell, libaspell15) PIM support (libakonadi*) activities (libkactivities6) libQtWebKit4 ??? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

By coincidence I own this scanner "Canon Light 210". It worked perfectly with 42.1 original kernel and as well with the 4.4 kernel from kernel stable. I employ the 4.4 because of a wlan problem with the 4.1 and the Lenovo X201, not because of the scanner. Could you check (sorry for naming stupid things: lsusb on the command line an put the output here? Then: - is the scanner unlocked (we sometimes do not see the obvious) - try to change from usb hub to direct if you use one. - try to change usb port - try to change cable. Curious on your lsusb. --- Die Bundesliga hat begonnen!

[opensuse] Canon CanoScan LiDe 210 scanner
by Albert Oszkó 22 Nov '16

22 Nov '16

Hi all, The above mentioned USB scanner used to work - except the buttons on it - up to oS 13.2. SDB says it is fully compatible using genesys driver. Canon says it is not supported at all on linuxes. I could not make it work on any of the Leap systems. The hardware is correctly recognized, but neither Skanlite, nor Xsane work, only an invalid argument message and frightening noise from the scanner are returned. Interestingly, Debian 8 and Win7 virtual machines have no problems with it. So I suspect the kernel 4.x has some problem with it. Am I right? Can you suggest some workaround? Thanks, Albert

[opensuse] [42.2] krdc and kwallet
by Werner Flamme 22 Nov '16

22 Nov '16

Hi everyone, yesterday I did the update from 42.1 to 42.2, and since then I have a problem between krdc (16.08.2-1.1) and kwallet (kwallet-tools-5.26.0-2.1.x86_64, kwallet-tools-lang-5.26.0-2.1.x86_64, kwalletd5-5.26.0-2.1.x86_64, kwalletd5-lang-5.26.0-2.1.noarch, kwalletmanager5-16.08.2-1.1.x86_64, libkwalletbackend5-5-5.26.0-2.1.x86_64, libsvn_auth_kwallet-1-0-1.9.4-1.1.x86_64). Looking via kwallet, I see the username/passwordcpairs for KRDC, but KRDC does not use them correctly - either the windows closes immediately or I get "wrong username or password". Do I need to install additional kwallet packages? I also see a kwalletmanager-15.04.3-9.1 - is this required for the communication between krdc and kwallet? There are a bazillion dependencies when I do a "ldd $(which krdc)", but no kwallet.
